I Like Coffee My Way

It’s no secret that I’m addicted to coffee. Admittedly I’m not as bad as I used to be, but I still need my cup (or two) of coffee in the morning to start my day. 
I started drinking coffee regularly in my senior year of high school. I’d taste my mom or dad’s coffee concoctions every now and then, but it wasn’t my beverage of choice. When I saw “AP Calculus” listed as my first class of the day, bright and early at 7:35am, I knew I’d need something to kickstart my brain.

Even though I don’t live at home with my family, drinking coffee makes me feel at home wherever I am. Wayfair.com is all about everything home, and for many people and families, that includes enjoying their morning coffee. Whether you program your coffee maker the night before so it’s ready to go in the morning, or if you brew a fresh pot upon waking up, having coffee your way is what makes your mornings perfect. Today, I’m sharing with y’all how I drink coffee my way.

Drinking coffee is an essential part of my daily routine. Even on busy mornings, drinking coffee out of my favorite mug always makes me feel comfortable and at home. On the weekends, I love wrapping up in a blanket on the couch and enjoying my coffee while browsing Twitter and the news on my iPad or watching Good Morning America. Sometimes I stay in bed, but only on special days when I know I don’t have a lot going on.

My family has gone through our fair share of coffee makers, of all different sizes and varieties. Our current favorite is a Keurig K-cup brewer, and it’s wonderful. So wonderful, in fact, that I bought one for myself a few years ago to have at my apartment. It hasn’t failed me yet! It’s perfect for busy mornings when I’m rushing to class, or slow mornings when I can take time to smell the coffee.

I’m one of those K-cup people and I have no shame in admitting it. There are so many varieties and options and flavors; I really haven’t found one I don’t like, unless it’s decaf. Life is too short to drink decaf. I recently bought a 60-cup variety pack from Bed Bath & Beyond. That’ll last me the rest of the semester, right?

Confession: I’m a huge coffee mug collector enthusiast hoarder. Mugs are one of the best ways to express yourself, and they’re useful! I have a whole collection at home, but I do keep some fun mugs at my apartment. I also have a thing for travel mugs; my favorite is a VT Tervis Tumbler that a family friend gave me when I graduated high school. 

So there you have it, that’s how I drink coffee my way. If I go a day without it, well, something must be wrong with me! How do you take your coffee? How do you enjoy coffee YOUR way?
